Celebrating Radhastami
(Kadamba Kanana Swami, 21 September 2015, Pretoria, South Africa, Radhastami Lecture) Today is the auspicious day of Radhastami, a day we must all spend meditating on Srimati Radharani. Since Radharani is the topmost and purest devotee of Krsna, in one sense, Radhastami is then the day of pure devotion. It is the day where whatever
A day of introspection
(Kadamba Kanana Swami, 21 September 2015, Pretoria, South Africa, Radhastami Lecture) Radhastami is very different to Janmastami. Janmastami is a big public festival that is widely celebrated and members from all parts of society take part in it; even non-devotees often get enthusiastic and do something auspicious on this day. Radhastami is however different. It
The topmost love of Krsna
(Kadamba Kanana Swami, 13 September 2013, Durban, South Africa, Radhastami Lecture) Srimati Radharani has the potency to fully capture and satisfy Krsna, however then comes the greatest mystery of all time.

Q&A with KKS: First trip to Vrndavan
(Kadamba Kanana Swami, 07 January 2018, Brisbane, Australia, Q&A Programme) How did you go to Vrndavan? Is this when you took up Krsna consciousness seriously? I was walking with the cows one evening on the outskirts and arrived into Vrndavan by foot. I walked straight into the Krsna Balaram Mandir where they were just starting Tulasi Puja and
Q&A with KKS: First acceptance of Krsna
(Kadamba Kanana Swami, 07 January 2018, Brisbane, Australia, Q&A Programme) Can you capture the moment when you accepted Krsna as the ultimate truth. Because many of the sadhus I met in India were smoking ganja, I did not have much faith in them. They always asked where I was from and just wanted some money to smoke ganja. So
Q&A with KKS: First connections
(Kadamba Kanana Swami, 07 January 2018, Brisbane, Australia, Q&A Programme) When was the first time you connected with someone within the realm of Krsna consciousness? How did that develop into what it did? All those times in India that I visited, I never met devotees. But, I had seen devotees in my town in Holland.
I've created this foundation to preserve my media and to support African preaching programs in South Africa

Dear Devotees
On Thursday 9th March at 12.06pm, under the gaze of Śrī Giriraja, in the holy land of Śrī Vṛndāvana dhāma, in the loving company of his spiritual master and the vaisnavas, with a resounding kirtan party, His Holiness Kadamba Kanana Swami departed from this material realm.
"Intelligent persons who take shelter of beautiful Vrndavana's opulent vines melting with motherly love, and throw far away the idea that they are material, become supremely successful, both in this life and also after death." (Prabhodananda Saraswati, Vrindavana Mahimamrta)
